Using the PIN Method of Wi-Fi Protected Setup 3
If your wireless access point/router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (PIN Method), you can configure the
machine easily without a computer. The PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method is one of the
connection methods developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance
®
. By inputting a PIN which is created by an Enrollee
(your machine) to the Registrar (a device that manages the wireless LAN), you can setup the wireless
network and security settings. See the user’s guide for your wireless access point/router for instructions on
how to access the Wi-Fi Protected Setup mode.
Note
Routers or access points that support Wi-Fi Protected Setup have a symbol as shown below.
a Plug the machine’s power cord into the AC power outlet. Turn on the machine’s power switch.
